    So we started with 25, then after we lost a solid 4 as a given variable. So now we have 21 beans. Later we find that 6 pounds are left and are in not part of the beans sold that can be effectively used to find the weight of each equal bean bag. So we subtract 6 from 21. We get 15 pounds that were sold in 20 bags. The equation to find the weight of each bag from there is:

    15 lb/10 bags

    From there it equals 0.75 lb per bag.
